Technical Question.....
If your car goes down the track good but it hits the high chip at 1000 feet....when you accidently put in a 4.56 gear instead of a 4.10....
What do you do??? A. Change converters.... B. Change transmissions.... C. Pull the chip out... D. Comment on how consistent the car is running against the chip... Z. Actually check the gear ratio...... |
I like D !!!!! .......... Tom
|
Shouldnt you put "accidently" in little quotey things.....[:-grin-:][:-grin-:]
HR 53 S/ST 3533 |
Just run 1/8 mile tracks!
Later, Bill Koski |
Change the air in the tires from winter air to spring air. Then call chaser.[:-grin-:]
|
oopsy... take the chip out and change springs every round like a pro racer has to http://www.classracer.com/html/happy.gif
so how is the new hotrod? Hows KY this time of year? Any pics of the new beast yet? |
So, how high and how long were you on it?
Too funny... you have too much on your plate... |
It wasn't us.....
I believe the guy has one of our old motors....(with Mike Lyons massaged cylinder heads....) I think he has it in an orange 27 T roadster......I can't quite remember his name..... ChaserFan maybe..... |
Change the gear again
BB[:-cheers-:] |
Unplug the tach..
|
Double Diamond Deep Stage to Double Diamond Down Track...
The guy really thinks outside the box... |
I really think he did it intentionally...so it was ok to run that top end chip.....
well anyway...I feel bad for him...so I will be sending him some of the win money for a new pair of glasses.....then all he will have to do is Plug in the tach change the trans back change the converter and change the rear end again.... and he should be ready to go....ouch! CBS |
Give him a 4 speed and clutch.
|
He needs a 700 inch motor......similar to the one I just happen to have for sale. The story sounded more like Pat's Christine car......
|
you should have seen the look on his face when we figured it out....
He lent the center section out to a guy and it came back with a 4.56 gear in it...instead of a 4.10... incredible.... CBS |
maybe that's something we should test..."the Double Dimond downtrack stutter"
I wondered why he had such big mufflers......he was playing me like a fiddle.... |
well that makes sense now... when you stage with the wheelie bar, the guy musta figured the gear for 1304 ft.. lol
I massaged the heads?! That thing must be a slug then! suprised it'd rev high enuf to need a chip!?! Pictures of the new improved HCGG streamliner? |
The new streamliner is awesome.....We are very happy with it....same speed as the old one.....but with beadlocks and wing.....
And it looks and drives like a dream.......I think we have a picture....somewhere...from Columbus......yesterday..... I'll check.... Scott Brown design R&R Autobody..... Awesome..... |
And American Race Cars of course......
|
too add to chebby.... and the shift light too.. hahahaha
The Doughboy[:-smilearound-:][:-smilearound-:][:-smilearound-:] |
I used to like coming to this site!
|
I sure hope he can change the gear on his own cause im out of old shirts to help him, I use to think he new what he was doing!!!
|
He is just testing our obersvational p;owers fore the season ahead
|
|
Needless to say...its always entertaining to go to a race with Tom....Webb...Pat...and the rest of the Columbus crew.....not to mention running a junior for the first time....(3rd round redlight)
|
Rock, Pat, Tom, Don and all the crew, we did have a blast this past weekend at Columbus, just wish we could get past those semi final rounds, lol. Oh well we had a good weekend.
Rock, Dad and I wondered why it sounded like your car was on NOS in high gear where we was parked, change the gear, lol http://www.classracer.com/html/happy2.gif "Nitro Joe" Jackson www.nitrojoes.com nitrojoe@neo.rr.com |
No NOS for us.....
Just Reher-Morrison power...... |
just teasing you Rock, but like we was talking to you about your stop deal, it comes on hard, and works good
"Nitro Joe" Jackson www.nitrojoes.com nitrojoe@neo.rr.com |
add a few hundy in the weight box . Wouldn't that work?
|
Were waiting for the results with the new gear......
Come on Tom.....hurry up and change that drivetrain again..... CBS |
Going to Virginia this weekend with Theo.....will let you know what happens!
|
He's going, but does he know what gear will be in????
|
Good luck......I'm sure you will be fine.....
CBS |
Goodluck in VA. You'll definitely need the correct gear in it there, else you'll be ringin the bell... lol
|
So, how did it go Chaserfan1?
|
From what I hear.....he went big speed......with our last Reher-Morrison bullet....
he probably broke out..... CBS |
Apparently he didn't fare so well. Didn't see his name in the first rd winners list.. hope he wadn't gettin fancy staging again.. lol Probly can't see around that huge engine now http://www.classracer.com/html/happy.gif
|
Everything was going fine.....until fist round! 9.90 at over 162. First round, idling into the lights, kicked a pushrod out. I think I was lucky and caught it quick enough so there was no real damage. Pulled it out this morning to have everything checked just to be sure. Should be back together by Norwalk.
Virginia was a mess. Rain on Saturday, wind on Sunday. We didn't run first round until after 5 on Sunday. Not so bad if you are 2 hours from home, 9 hours not so good. |
